Resolving Conflicts

When a RAID set is created, then metadata written to the disk includes drive connection information. If, after a disk failure, the replacement disk was previously part of a RAID set (or used in another system), it may have conflicting metadata. If so, this will prohibit the RAID set from being either created or rebuilt, in order for the RAID set to function properly; this old metadata must be first overwritten with the new metadata. To resolve this, from the main BIOS window select Resolve Conflicts, then press Enter, the correct metadata, including the correct drive connection information, will be written to the replacement disk.
